Region Mainfranken

In 2011 seven counties, the cities Würzburg and Schweinfurt and the Chambers of Commerce and Craft joined forces in the founding of a regional development and location marketing agency, Region Mainfranken GmbH. In a common effort to strengthen the regional economy and to help secure funding in dealing with future economical challenges and demographic changes a strategy plan was signed by the shareholders in 2014. The project orientated activities contribute to the branding and marketing of the region.
